For those breeders who don't do this, good for you, but I would think you can see that it is a problem. How many of you sell puppies with breeding rights? How can you know if a 12-week-old puppy is breed worthy? |
Still confused on your skipping a step comment...Genetically you can't (F1's, F2's etc..)
BUT I do agree with you that some breeders are into making money just like the majority of Yorkie breeders. Seriously please go to
PARTI YORKSHIRE TERRIER CLUB - Home to read about the history of these dogs and the history of Yorkies around the turn of the century. Breezeaway has done an incredible job with this website..and has complete documentation on books written during this time. She has stud books and many newspaper articles that really tell the story.
I do not believe it is one gene breeding any different than the one gene breeding of Yorkies.
I don't think you can point fingers at Parti breeders or Biewer breeders without pointing fingers at Yorkie breeders..
